MODERATORS
Mods are a bit too trigger happy on the libs sometimes. Many are just uninformed and don't necessarily have bad intentions. This person getting banned seemed uneccessary. Having a discussion with these people would be more beneficial as long as they don't resort to using slurs.
Calling all Black people monkeys isn't ok, but calling all Chinese person slaves is?
The first claim is just straight plain old racism, while the second reeks of confused lib. Either way, calling someone a slave in this context is almost certainly meant as an insult to the political organisation of the state and not to its people. This distinction is important with respect to moderation.
I consider the proletariat of capitalist societies to be slaves by definition. Thus if I were convinced that the PRC was capitalist, I could stand behind this sentiment.
I love justifying racism too don't worry
How was I racist? Seems to me that your retort targets some untrue idea in your head about who I am rather than what I actually wrote.
I also do not understand why you made this post if you do not actually make an attempt at trying to understand the replies in return.
Who isn't a slave of their government these days? Western country have wagies slaving their life away while the government prints money to make housing unaffordable.
The word slave in this context refers to him thinking that only Chinese people are economically extorted. Not because of their ethnicity but because of their government structure.
Informing a person is a lot more helpful than just flat out banning them.
Anyone thinking bourgeoisie extortion is fundamentally different from that of feudal lords need to reexamine the process of appropriation of surplus value.
